January 20, 20196 yr comment_566277 If not specifically mentioned you could Always use the universal amount of torque for that M8/M6 bolt? (don't know what metric bolt it is but there are universal lists for torque) Link to comment https://www.classiczcars.com/forums/topic/61436-torque-specs-link-mounting-braces/#findComment-566277 Share on other sites More sharing options...
January 20, 20196 yr comment_566287 Tighten until they break then back off a quarter turn. No seriously, those are M10x1.25 grade 9, so 33-44Â ft-lb would be lovely. I found the right diagram and specs in the 78 FSM, RA-3.

January 20, 20196 yr comment_566290 What model of S30 do you have, it seems that the torque for this fastener is lower for 70 thru 73 240z's and changed to 33-44 ft-lb with the 260z. FYI this torque spec is listed in all of the FSM's, Here are a couple of images from the 1970 FSM. Did the fastener size change starting with 260z"s? The 240z FSM's indicate 23.1 to 31.1 ft-lb.
